New York City Ballet: Jerome Robbins Program

Admired on both the ballet and Broadway stage, Jerome Robbins excelled at creating profound drama in his choreographic works. 2 & 3 Part Inventions shines with optimism and youthful spirit while highlighting the interplay of musical and rhythmic counterpoint. Set to Prokofiev's feverish concerto, Opus 19/The Dreamer focuses on a male protagonist's elusive interactions with his ethereal counterpart. Finally, I'm Old Fashioned, Robbins' tribute to Fred Astaire, captures America's love affair with the silver screen.

Great ballet - the casting was wonderful and frankly I think the third ring is one of the best places to sit in that theatre. You can see the entire stage, but it's not so high that you're staring at the tops of the dancers' heads.
